I love them. Wore one to a September wedding. Revelry has great ones. As long as it’s not a summer wedding, I’m all for them.

Love them! I tried to get them for my bridesmaids but they refused them since my wedding was mid-September. They thought they would be too hot (but some brands make light velvet these days).

Love it for a fall or winter wedding. Maybe even late spring for the right material.

Love them! I think I saw some cute ones on BHLDN a while back. Would have loved to do a mix of colors for my bridesmaids if we had a fall wedding.

Men, do you ever sometimes get in a weird state some days where you feel like you want to impregnate your SO (or if single any woman)? I’m not talking about feeling like you want a family, you just have this strong urge to put a baby in her. It’s really weird and started happening to me lately. Not sure if that means my clock is ticking...

My mentor told me this early in my career, so passing it on to whoever needs it this time or year. Working consistently until 11 pm is not a badge of honor, it is a clear sign of inefficiency, lack of productivity, and being bad at your job.

Anyone else feeling super overwhelmed with the initial steps of planning? I’m struggling to pick a venue because that contributes so much to the rest of the day (if their food is good, how far will guests have to drive, does the town have nice hotels and airbnbs, does it 🤢 “represent us as a couple”, is it not too expensive). Any tips on how to drown out other peoples opinions as a bride who is very worried about making her guests have a good time?

8 hours or 10 hours for videographer? We have our photographer for 8, but the additional 2 hours for the videographer to do 10 is only $300 more so thinking we might as well go for 10… Planning to do a first look and want footage of getting ready through to reception but also have heard you don’t need them to stay for too much of the reception as it also kind of looks the same after a while?

Hello! Two questions: I got engaged 3 weeks ago and am still vetting wedding planners, so I’m in a weird limbo phase. Do I start searching for photographers for an an engagement shoot now, or do I wait until I’ve signed with the planner and they’ll provide recs for photographers? Q 2: my fiancé and I are of drastically different skin tones (south Indian female / Irish white male) and I’m nervous about how pics will turn out. How do I ensure the photog knows how to optimize our skin tones? TY!

Hi all! I currently live in LA but my wedding next year will be in my hometown of Chicago. I plan to go wedding dress shopping soon in both LA and Chicago. If I find my dream wedding dress in Chicago, I’d like to order it to be shipped to a store in LA so that I can have my fittings throughout the year without having to travel back to Chicago. However this also means I would have to fly to Chicago with my wedding dress. Has anyone been in this situation before? If so, how was the experience?
